    Vanilla and caramel lead the way in Botran Anejo Sistema Solera 18, with rich woody and toffee notes backed by subtle hints of dried fruit and chocolate. The palate is balanced and soft, providing gently sweet flavours without overwhelming sugar. While the finish is short, RumX tasters find it approachable, soothing, and fairly priced. Worth a sip for those who appreciate mellow, dessert-like rums with a touch of elegance.

    "A very sweet rum in my mind, but fruity with light wood and vanilla. I use this one for desserts or baking."

    "A solera rum with a dark color. A nose on caramel and Demerara sugar with a little side of cognac.The palate is sweet, too sweet with dried fruits.A too short but balanced finish.It lacks watts and depth."

    "Smells and tastes quite sweet. Slight spicy notes. This has certainly been sweetened. The finish is flat and thin. More could certainly have been made of 18 years. But considering the price, it all fits together well."

    "Behind this aesthetically pleasing bottle lies a Guatemalan rum, made with cane honey, that's just as honeyed. The nose features dried fruits, caramel, sweet spices and roasted wood, accompanied by a hint of tobacco. A classic profile that works well. The palate remains lightly fruity, with hints of toffee joining caramel and vanilla for sweetness, then pepper and roasted wood add a little warmth. A simple, diluted profile that lacks depth and complexity. The finish brings an unexpected touch of Demerara sugar, but is as simple as it is ephemeral. The quality/price ratio isn't horrible, but you get the feeling that this Botran is a marketing product first and foremost."
